Genesis 50
1 And Joseph fell upon the face of his father, and wept upon him and kissed him.
Jozefi amibwakaki na nzoto ya tata na ye, alelaki ye mpe apesaki ye beze.
2 Then Joseph commanded his servants the physicians, to embalm his father, —so the physicians embalmed Israel.
Bongo Jozefi apesaki mitindo na minganga oyo bazalaki kosala epai na ye ete bakawusa nzoto ya Isalaele, tata na ye. Boye minganga bakawusaki nzoto ya Isalaele,
3 And they fulfilled for him forty days, for so, are they wont to fulfil the days of the embalmed, —and the Egyptians wept for him seventy days.
bakokisaki mikolo tuku minei oyo esengelaki mpo na kokawusa nzoto ya mowei. Bato ya Ejipito basalelaki ye matanga mikolo tuku sambo.
4 And, when the days of weeping for him were passed, Joseph spake unto the house of Pharaoh saying, —If I pray you, I have found favour in your eyes, speak ye I pray you in the ears of Pharaoh saying:
Tango mikolo ya matanga esilaki, Jozefi alobaki na bakonzi oyo basalaka na ndako ya Faraon: — Soki nazwi ngolu na miso na bino, bolobela ngai epai ya Faraon. Boyebisa ye
5 My father, made me swear saying, —Lo! I, am about to die, —in my grave which I digged for myself in the land of Canaan, there, shalt thou bury me. Now, therefore, let me go up, I pray thee and bury my father, and return.
ete tata na ngai alapisaki ngai ndayi: « Nakomi pembeni ya kokufa, bokunda ngai kati na kunda oyo natobolaki na libanga, na mokili ya Kanana. » Mpe sik’oyo, tika ete apesa ngai nzela mpo ete nakende kokunda tata na ngai, bongo na sima nde nakozonga.
6 And Pharaoh said, —Go up., and bury thy father according as he made thee swear.
Faraon azongisaki: — Kende mpe kunda tata na yo ndenge alapisaki yo ndayi.
7 So Joseph went up. to bury his father, —and there went up with him all the servants of Pharaoh the elders of his house, and all the elders of the land of Egypt;
Boye Jozefi akendeki kokunda tata na ye; bakalaka nyonso ya lokumu ya Faraon bakendeki elongo na ye: bakonzi oyo bazalaki kosala na ndako na ye mpe bakonzi nyonso ya Ejipito
8 and all the house of Joseph, and his brethren, and the house of his father, —only their little ones and their flocks and their herds, left they. in the land of Goshen.
elongo na bato nyonso ya ndako ya Jozefi, bandeko na ye ya mibali mpe bato nyonso oyo bazalaki na ndako ya tata na ye. Bana na bango kaka nde batikalaki na Gosheni na bameme, bantaba mpe bangombe na bango.
9 And there went up with him, both chariots and horsemen, —so it came to pass that, the company, was exceeding great,
Jozefi atambolaki lisusu elongo na bashareti mpe bato oyo batambolaka likolo ya bampunda. Ezalaki mobembo ya bato ebele penza.
10 And they came in, as far as the threshing-floor of the Buckthorn, which is beyond the Jordan, then wailed they there—an exceeding great and grievous wailing, —and he made for his father a mourning, of seven days.
Tango bakomaki na etando ya Atadi, pembeni ya Yordani, basalaki matanga ya monene penza. Jozefi asalaki mikolo sambo ya matanga mpo na tata na ye.
11 And when the dwellers in the land—the Canaanites—saw the mourning in the threshing-floor of the Buckthorn, they said, —A grievous mourning, this! for the Egyptians. For this cause, was the name thereof called Abel Mizraim, which is beyond the Jordan.
Bongo tango bato ya Kanana oyo bazalaki kovanda kuna bamonaki matanga wana na etando ya Atadi, balobaki: « Bato ya Ejipito bazali na milulu minene ya matanga. » Yango wana babengaki esika yango Abele-Mitsirayimi, oyo ezali pembeni ya Yordani.
12 And his sons did for him thus as he had commanded them;
Bana mibali ya Jakobi basalaki ndenge tata na bango atindaki bango.
13 so his sons carried him to the land of Canaan, and buried him in the cave of the field of Machpelah, —which Abraham bought—with the field—for a possession of a buryingplace from Ephron the Hittite over against Mamre.
Bamemaki ye na mokili ya Kanana mpe bakundaki ye na lidusu ya mabanga oyo ezali na elanga ya Makipela, pembeni ya Mamire, elanga oyo Abrayami asombaki epai ya Efroni, moto ya Iti, mpo ete akomisa yango lilita na ye.
14 Then Joseph returned to Egypt he and his brethren and all who had been up with him to bury his father, —after he had buried his father.
Sima na kokunda tata na ye, Jozefi azongaki na Ejipito elongo na bandeko na ye ya mibali mpe bato nyonso oyo balandaki ye mpo na kokunda tata na ye.
15 Now when the brethren of Joseph saw that their father was dead, they said—Oh! if Joseph should lie in wait for us, —and should return, to us, all the evil wherewith we requited him!
Tango bandeko mibali ya Jozefi bamonaki ete tata na bango asili kokufa, balobaki: « Tango mosusu Jozefi akoyina biso mpe akozongisela biso mabe nyonso oyo tosalaki ye! »
16 So they sent in charge unto Joseph saying, —Thy father, gave command before he died saying:
Boye batindelaki Jozefi maloba oyo: « Liboso ete tata na yo akufa, atikaki maloba oyo: ‹ Tala makambo oyo bokoyebisa Jozefi:
17 Thus, shall ye say to Joseph—Ah now! do forgive we pray thee the transgression of thy brethren and their sin in that with evil, they requited thee. Now, therefore grant forgiveness we pray thee, for the transgression of the servants of the God of thy father! And Joseph wept when they spake unto him.
‘Nasengi ete olimbisa masumu ya bandeko na yo mpe mabe oyo basalaki yo! Sik’oyo, nabondeli yo, limbisa masumu ya basali ya Nzambe ya tata na yo!’ › » Tango Jozefi ayokaki maloba yango, alelaki.
18 Then went his brethren also, and fell down before him, —and said, Behold us! thine for servants.
Bandeko na ye bayaki, bamibwakaki liboso na ye mpe balobaki: — Tozali bawumbu na yo.
19 And Joseph said unto them—Do not fear, —although in place of God, I am.
Kasi Jozefi alobaki na bango: — Bobanga te! Boni, ngai nazali na esika ya Nzambe?
20 Ye, indeed, planned against me, evil, —God, planned it, for good, for the sake of doing, as at this day, to save alive much people.
Bino bokanisaki kosala ngai mabe, kasi Nzambe abongolaki yango bolamu mpo na kokokisa, ndenge ezali kosalema sik’oyo, lobiko ya bomoi ya bato ebele.
21 Now, therefore do not fear! I will nourish you and your little ones. Thus he consoled them, and spake unto their heart.
Yango wana, bobanga te! Nakokokisa posa na bino mpe ya bana na bino. Akitisaki bango mitema mpe alobelaki bango na boboto nyonso.
22 And Joseph abode in Egypt, he, and his father’s house, —and Joseph lived a hundred and ten years.
Jozefi avandaki na Ejipito elongo na libota nyonso ya tata na ye. Awumelaki na bomoi mibu nkama moko na zomi.
23 And Joseph saw Ephraim’s, sons of three generations—moreover the sons of Machir, son of Manasseh, were born upon Joseph’s knees.
Amonaki bakitani ya Efrayimi kino na molongo ya misato. Amonaki lisusu bana ya Makiri, mwana mobali ya Manase, ba-oyo babotamaki na mabolongo ya Jozefi.
24 Then said Joseph unto his brethren, I, am about to die, —but God will surely concern, himself for you, so will he take you up out of this land, into the land which he sware to Abraham to Isaac and to Jacob.
Jozefi alobaki na bandeko na ye ya mibali: « Nakomi pene ya kokufa. Kasi ya solo, Nzambe akosalisa bino mpe akobimisa bino na mokili oyo, mpo na kokotisa bino na mokili oyo alakaki epai ya Abrayami, ya Izaki mpe ya Jakobi tango alapaki ndayi. »
25 Then Joseph made the sons of Israel swear saying, —God will, surely concern, himself for you, So shall ye carry up my bones, from hence.
Jozefi alapisaki bana mibali ya Isalaele ndayi mpe alobaki na bango: « Tango Nzambe akosunga bino, bokolongola mikuwa na ngai na esika oyo. »
26 So Joseph died, being a hundred and ten years old, —and they embalmed him, and put him in a coffin in Egypt.
Bongo Jozefi akufaki tango akokisaki mibu ya mbotama nkama moko na zomi. Tango basilisaki kokawusa nzoto na ye, batiaki ye na sanduku na Ejipito.
